Alice was sitting in the Gryffindor Common Room. Her head was over one side of her chair, her feet over the other. She was slowly flipping through the pages of a very old book Lily had found in the Library.

Why does she like this stuff?, she thought to herself, slamming the book shut and letting out a bored groan.

Marlene looked up from her homework and smirked at her, "What's wrong with you?"

"I'm so bored," Alice said, flopping out of her chair so she was laying on the floor at Marlene's feet. Marlene pretended to stomp on her. "Oi!"

Marlene smiled innocently at her.

"You're a prick," Alice said, scowling at her friend.

"You could just do something, you know," Lily, who was sitting on the couch next to Marlene, said smartly.

Alice groaned again, rolling around on the floor. "You make it sound so easy!"

"Isn't it?" Marlene asked with a laugh.

"No, it is bloody well not!" Alice sat up, glaring at her friends. "I want to do something fun."

"Go sing in the corridors or something, then," Lily said with a roll of her green eyes. "You always enjoy that."

"That is true," Alice nodded, "I'm just not in the mood for all the skipping that goes with it. That's a lot of work, you know."

Marlene laughed, "You're ridiculous."

"Is it really me that is the ridiculous one or is it you? After all, you're the one saying I'm ridiculous and isn't that kind of ridiculous?"

Lily stared at Alice for a moment before shaking her head, "That didn't make any sense."

"I know," Alice said, groaning and rolling over again. Suddenly, she sat up. "I know what we should do! We should get back at the Marauder's for what they did to us earlier!"

"What did they do to us earlier?" Lily asked, tilting her head as she tried to remember. She glanced over at the Marauder's, who were sitting in the corner playing exploding snap. A small crowd had joined in around them to watch.

"You weren't there," Marlene said, now grinning at Alice, "What should we do?"

Alice sat up and tapped her finger to her chin, leaning back against her armchair. "I'm not sure. Lily, if this were the Muggle world what would you do?"

Lily shrugged, "Maybe throw water baloons at them."

"Water baloons, eh?" Alice said, her eyes twinkling as she smirked. "Let's do it."

Marlene threw her homework in her bag, jumping out of her seat, "We just have to make the baloons, because we don't have any."

"Can I join in?" Lily asked hopefully, her eyes glinting with mischeif.

"Of course," Alice said, holding out her hand for Lily to help her up. Lily extended her hand and pulled her to her feet, then they all went upstairs into their dorm bathroom.

"I know a spell that makes a baloon-type-thing," Lily said, waving her wand in the air and making a couple dozen appear. Marlene and Alice stared at her strangely. "Don't ask," Lily warned, "Just love it."

Marlene shrugged, accepting this and grabbing a water baloon-type-thing. She walked over to the bath tub and filled it with water, then tied it. Alice used the sink, while Lily used her wand.

In about ten minutes, they're bath tub was full to the brim with water baloon-type-things.

Alice looked over them proudly, "Alright, now all we need is a plan of action."

"I can send some down with my wand while you guys run down the stairs and then we just attack," Lily suggested.

Marlene smirked, "I've got an even better idea. Let's send one person down to watch - because someone needs to watch this - and then the other two will send the water baloons down with their wands. The boys will never know who hit them."

Lily and Alice grinned, agreeing immediately.

"Who should go down?" Lily asked, "Rock, paper, scissors?"

The other two agreed.

Lily won.

"Fantastic," Lily said, "I'll get a picture of it with my camera so you guys can see what happens," she grabbed her magical camera off her nightstand. "We should frame the picture and keep it forever."

Alice grinned, "I have the perfect frame back home! I'll tell my Dad to send it to me."

"Perfect," Marlene grinned and then looked back at the baloons, "We just need to get the water baloons to the door."

"That's easy," Lily said with a simple wave of her wand. The baloon-type-things floated up in the air and over to the dorm door.

"You're really good at nonverbal spells," Alice said appreciatively.

"Thanks," Lily said with a smile, "I'm going to go downstairs. Good luck!"

Lily walked down the stairs and went back to her spot on the couch, picking up her homework and writing a few notes. She couldn't really concentrate, though, and kept sneaking glances at the stairs, waiting for the water baloon-type-things to rain down.

Why are they taking so long?, Lily wondered, using her quill to itch her chin. They should have sent them down, already.

See, upstairs Alice and Marlene couldn't decide who would be the first to send down one of the baloon-type-things.

"I want to send the first one down," Alice said, crossing her arms over her chest, "I was the one who came up with this idea, for Merlin's sake!"

"No, you weren't, Lily was! And I came up with the second part," Marlene stomped her foot hard on the ground.

"Rock, paper, scissors?" Alice offered.

Marlene nodded.

They both did paper.

"Again!" Marlene cried.

They both did rock.

"Again!" Alice exclaimed.

They both did scissors.

Marlene groaned, "This is never going to work!"

"How about we both send one down at the same time? And then we can both just send 'em like crazy," Alice said.

Marlene nodded enthusiastically, "That'll work! Let's send 'em together."

They opened the door and used their wands to make the water baloon-type-things go flying down the stairs.

Lily saw them come down and almost died of excitement. She loved the rush pranking someone gives one. It's quite exhilerating.

They two water filled contraptions flew down the stairs and right into Sirius's head, which was bent over his game in concentration.

The blow made his head fly forward and smash into his game, making is literally explode in his face.

"Who did that?" Sirius exclaimed angrily, feeling the back of his head. "Is that water? What the heck?"

"I think I saw something flying towards you," Peter said, hoping to be helpful.

"And you didn't think to warn me?" Sirius snapped, then stopped himself when he saw Peter's dejected face, "Sorry, Pete, this isn't your fault."

James stood on his chair, looking around the crowd of people, "Who did this?"

Another baloon-type-thing flew into his face, soaking his hair and clothes.

Lily laughed out loud, sinking into her seat so they wouldn't see and taking a picture of the scene.

After that one, it literally started to rain water baloon-type-things. They were zooming around the room at top speed, yet somehow only hitting the Marauders. Poor Peter was curled up in a ball under the table.

Lily took as many pictures as she could, but she knew even without the camera she would never forget this. It was epic.

"Who is doing this to us?" Peter cried, rocking back and forth.

James and Sirius spotted me laughing and came over.

"Where are they coming from, Lily? I know you have something to do with this," James said, covering his head as a one of them flew into his face.

"Me? No. I'm right here with you," I said innocently, smiling up at them sweetly.

If they weren't suspicous before, they sure were now.

"Tell me what you know, Lily," Sirius warned, but it was a lot less scary when a water baloon-type-thing came and smacked him in the butt.

"Or what?" Lily said with a laugh, crossing her arms over her chest.

James and Sirius shared a look before nodding at each other. James walked over to her and picked her up under her arms like she was a child, then held her in front of him, using her as a sheild against the water baloon-type-things.

Lily yelped as she was drenched with cold water.

"Stop it, Alice! Marlene! They're using me as a sheild! STOP IT!" She screeched at the top of her lungs.

"Quick, Moony," Sirius said, picking up a random First Year and using him as a shield.

Remus levitated himself up the girls staircase, making sure to dodge water baloon-type-things and walls.

He got to their door and Alice and Marlene shrieked, dropping their wands in surprise and slamming the door in his face.

The water baloon-type-things stopped.

James and Sirius grinned.

"Good work, Moony!" Sirius called, grinning and putting the little First Year down. "Thanks, mate."

The First Year glared at him, stomping on his foot, "And I used to think you were cool."

Sirius held his foot and hopped on his other foot, calling to the boy as he walked away, "I am cool!"

James put a soaked Lily down. The second she was back on her feet, she turned around and slapped him as hard as she could across the face.

"Never do that to me again, James Potter, you hear me? Never again," she hissed.

James gulped, nodding his head, "I won't, Lily, I promise. It was just a spir of the moment thing, you know how that is."

Lily glared at him. "Never again."

And with that she spun on her heel and stormed up the stairs, pushing Remus out of the way roughly.

"Wow," Remus commented, "She's not very happy. She doesn't normally push other people when you upset her."

"She is so hot," James said, still staring at the spot where she had disappeared.

Remus nodded, "And once again you didn't listen to what I said."

"I am so totally in love with her," James sighed, "And she doesn't even like me! How did this happen?"

"Well, you've kind of been a prick to her since the day she met you and you always annoy her. Even I get irritated with the whole thing," Remus said truthfully, knowing his friend wasn't listening.

"I know! I've always been good to her," James said, completely oblivious to Remus, "I wish she'd like me."

"I'm going to do my homework," Remus said, turning around and walking over to the table.

"You're right, Remus," James said, nodding his head enthusiastically, "I should write her some poetry."

Sirius came up to James's side and thumped him on the head.

"Oi!" James exclaimed, rubbing his head and glaring at Sirius.

"Remus didn't say anything about poetry," Sirius said with a roll of his eyes, "You were being stupid again."

"I really have to stop doing that," James said, shaking his head. "Sorry, Remus."

Remus waved him off, helping Peter up from under the table and then starting on his homework.

James Potter thought about Lily the rest of the night.


Author's Note: This hasn't been edited, yet, but I'm trying to update more frequently. I feel bad for rejecting this story for so long.

I feel like this isn't as funny as it could be, but I might be wrong. Oh, well, I still like it. Make's me think of when I was younger...that is, if you take away all the magic and just leave a full blown water fight with people using other people as shields. Ah, memories.

Current Dare: weasleytwins12 - I'm not sure if you remember giving me this dare, but here it is. Sorry it took so long and sorry if it wasn't what you expected. I tried my best! :)

Coming Soon: DracoHermioneForever, Umbrella . Confederation(those spaces aren't there, but my computer is being stupid), and lyssanoelle! :)

Special thanks to my Beta, siriusgirlstar! You're amazing! :) And thank you to everyone who reviewed!

And don't forget to dare me! :)
